Description

Devoted to the interests of the Boundary Mining District. The Phoenix Pioneer was published in Phoenix, in the Kootenay Boundary region of southern British Columbia, and ran from April 1898 to May 1916. The Pioneer was published by the Pioneer Publishing Company, which was managed by W. B. Wilcox (from 1899-1908) and Thomas Alfred Love (from 1908-1911). On August 12th, 1910, the headquarters of the Pioneer burned down, together with a large portion of the town of Phoenix itself, and the paper consequently suffered serious financial difficulties. On April 11th, 1911, the Pioneer was sold to Gilbert Kay, who published and edited the paper until May 1916. The paper was published under a variant title, the Phoenix Pioneer and Boundary Mining Journal, both from 1903-1910 and from 1911-1912.

Titled "The Phoenix Pioneer" from 1900-01-06 to 1903-06-20, 1910-09-10 to 1911-10-14, and from 1912-03-30 to 1916-05-27. Titled "The Phoenix Pioneer and Boundary Mining Journal" from 1903-06-27 to 1910-08-06 and from 1911-10-21 to 1912-03-25. Published by Pioneer Publishing Co. from 1900-01-06 to 1910-08-06, by T. Alfred Love from 1910-09-10 to 1911-03-25, by Kay and Conway from 1911-04-01 to 1911-06-17, and by G. Kay from 1911-06-24 to 1916-05-27.

O'Farrell, had' beenHn this.section a number of times, and this trip he induced' Mr. ;,Heirize:':; to, take a look at the mines and smelters of this section. Incidentally,,the trip, was a strenuous one, and more ground was covered in a short space of time than' probably ever before in this sectipn by any mining man Special horses, rigs, and <.pecial trains on two railways enabled Air Hein/e to do this with his party. He'usited Prank'm camp, Phoenix i_am.> and Deadwood camp, besides Greenwood, Grand 1-orks and Phoenix and was back in Spokane within three days. With Mr. Heinze were W. E. D. Fisher, a'financial iman of New York: Charles Leonard, of Butte,' an attorney, who has conducted his numerous 'lawsuits; H. \V. Warrington, -manager of the Kettle Valley lines;.George A. McLeod, manager of theMcKinley mines, Ltd., besides Mr. O'Farrell. 'Monday;morning teams; wt.re taken to Franklin camp, .some 50 miles above Grand Forks, and the McKinley mine examined, * returning Tuesday evening in remarkably short time. Wednesday morning Supt. Morgan's private coach brought the party to Phoenix" over the'Gioat Northern on a special train,where they were met-by Supts. Hodges and Sm'iih and shown through- ihe G'anliv mines.- By one o'clock. Wednesday the entire party had reached Greenwood, dined and wore aboard a .sptrial tiain on the C I'. R., which-lonk'them to ihe Mother L:)dt; oil'nei'.i Dead^b ).! camp, leing joiiu-d at Greenwood by J K. McAllister,manager'of the 15. C. Copper Co.,' and W. C. Thomas, of the" Dominion Copper Co. An hour was spent at this mine, and a quick run ol iSI minutes made down the, hill '-six miles to Greenwood, the special con tinuing on to Oro Denoro on the C.P. R., where the-Great Northern special train wfts waiting. At ten or eleven that night Mr. Heinze and party were in Spokane ayain and off to Butte. Mr. Heinze knew what he was about every minute of the lime he spent in the Houndary and made the most ol 'it'.- He asked questions here and there as he was being escorted about the mines and Granby snicker, showing that he was as thoroughly at home in either place as a mining engineer of his technical and practical exptr.ence is expected to be. It was a quick trip, but the Montana "copper prince'' was absorbing information at every step he took. - ��� ������ ��� Just what Mr. Heinze's business was at this lime in Boundary did not transpire, as men worth a score of millions are. not, apt to take the public into their confidence till the time is ripe, but it would not be surprising if the astute opponent of the Amalgamated became interested -in the mines of Boundary* in^he due course of��� time. At ,present, at-leasf, the public is still guessing, but Mr. Heinze does not usually take these trips purely for' his health , ; Frill 'Aaiutfui Helaixe. Tlie photographer and the engraver have succeeded in producing a lifelike representation in the above*, picture of Fritz Augustus Heinle, one of the most successful of the young mining engineers of the west. Mr. Heinze is a graduate of the Columbia School of mines in New York city, and after securing his bheepskin soon struck out for the west, where his ability could be made to count quickest. After some experience in the mining and smelting fields of Colorado, Mr. Heirize reached Butte, Montana, and soon made himself felt in that greatest of all copper camps. Securing a position as a mining engineer, he soon had some leases on mines, and later came into possession of some of the best copper producers there���mines which have earned him millions of dollars.' Shortly after his advent to Butte he became entangled f with the great Amalgamated Copper Cx, owned by Ssandard Oil interests, and for nearly eight years he has been successful in beating them at every turn. How he did this is another story.' In every way they could devise th~y tried to down Heinze, bringing their hundreds of million's to bear in the process, and have always failed. He'was neither bribed, beaten nor bought.- ��� Before Heinze went to Butte he came to British Columbia, and his successes in Rossland and Trail are well known. He erected the Trail smelter, built the railway from Trail to Rossland and had a charter to* build into the Boundary. Then he ran afoul of the C. P. R., and not caring to engage in the titanic struggle of downing that corporation laid his plans to unload. This he did, selling his smelter, railway and railway charter to the C.P.R , and it was undeMhat very charter thai the C.P.R. built\into the Boundary from the Coigrnbi��>7riirer. "He reserved a part of the" land grant that went with the raibA'ay, and is today a large land owner'/in Southern ^British Columbia'. #f 'K ^ Even T. W? I^awson says that Heinze has ability aj^in to genius and those who know him best" agree with the statement. His fortune is estimated at $20,060,000. $14 ORE IN THE MOTHER LODE Average From the Diamond Drill Cores. Boundary Mining Notes Main Shaft Is to Be Deepened 015 Feet. 0 D Q.. M. COOK WAS HERE. Large Attendance of the Mnoalc Fralcraily Thursday. Thursday evening, William J. Cook, of Grand Forks, district .deputy grand master of District No. 7, A. F. & A. M., visited King Edward Lodge No. 36 at the regular, monthly communication of the lodge. The third degree was exemplified, and, the district deputy was much pleased with the manner in. which the work was put on. A large number of visitors were present; there being nearly 50 in Masonic hall. Among the visitors were A. M. Whiteside, C. Scott Galloway, jas. S. Birnie, Jas. D. McCreath, P. S. Feeney and H. S. .Simmons, of Greenwood Lodge No. 28, and G. D. Clark and George R. Gordon, of Harmony Lodge No. 37, ofGiand Forks. Members of lodges in Perth, Scotland, and Yarmouth, N. S., were also there. Following the session in the hall, a lunch was served, when a few speeches were made, the visitors saying many pleasant things about King Edward Lodge. Bowllnx Rcitsltt. The following table gives the games won and lost by each team and the percentages up to Thursday night, in elusive: The management of the British Columbia Copper Co. has decided, after extended diamond drilling operations, to deepen the present main shaft ofthe Mother Liode to the 500 foot level, a distance of 150 feet. Already prepar- tions to ihat end are i;eing made by cutting a pocket and station at the 350 foot level, and ai soon as that work is completed,, sinking will be undertaken. The shaft will be of four compartments from the 350 foot level down, and later the present shaft from that level up will be made the same width. -."At present there are about r 25" men .employed at the Mother Lode niine.' ���',' $i*,0re In Mather Lode. . Some interesting results have been obtained from , prospecting\_wiih the -diamond-'''drill below the 306 ft;i level of the Biitish Columbia Copper Co.'s Mother Lode mine, in the Boundary district, says the B. C. Mining Record. A hole, started in the ^bo-ft. level arid drilled at an angle of 75 degrees towards the : east, entered the hanging wa.ll rock at a depth of about 100 feet. Tne details of assays of the core at various depths were as under : The Skylark is shipping' ore again this week. On the Betts and Hesperus the long tunnel is now in 735 feet. Last week Granby shares were held as high as $8 on the Boston stock exchange.' Mike Callahan is making ei. ht feet weekly on his con'ract for sinking the Preston shaft. Tuesday was monthly payday in this camp, when approximately $40,- 000 was di'tributed for wages. A deal is being arranged for the working of the Buttercup, the claim not far from Eholt that made such a rich showing in free gold last spring. , Now that the 500 foot level, has been reached in the winze at theGran- by mines, development is proceeding at that level as well as on the 400 foot level. . ''������"'"' , The diamond drill which has been working from the surface near Old Ironsides .avenue -for a few weeks, is now boring holes at the 300 level of the Victoria.

While at best, cores from diamond drill holes, are but indications of the general character of the ore penetrated, and so may not safely be taken as a reliable basis for estimating average values of the whole body, it is yet gratifying to find ore of such good grade in the deeper parts of the mine. When, three or four years ago, the mining of ore in the 200 and 300-ft. levels of the Mother Lode mine was discontinued in favor of quarrying the ore in large open cuts at the surface, thus avoiding the cost of hoisting from underground, there were big reserves of ore left in those levels, which had been openedfor considerable lengths. The ore body, as opened at the 200 ft. level, has a width varying from 80 to 100 feet., and the workings show it to be continuous at this level for at least 350 feet. At the 300 ft. level less exploration was done, but the main ore body was proved to maintain its large size, while a second shoot of ore, 18 to ?o feet wide, was encountered and followed for 200 feet without its dipping out of the level. . Ore is coming to the B. C. Copper Co. smelter from the-Napoleon mine, near Orient, Wash., and Capt. Harry- Johns is taking charge for the company, which has a bond on the property.' ��� A deal for a fifth interest- in the Elkhorn was: finally* concluded this week,, when a syndicate of Greenwood men, including Patrick .Welch, Dr. Spankiej H V. Fuller and ..some from Spokane secured 40,000'-of the 200,- 000 share of the company. Work was started at the mine Wednesday. ��� The time of Frederic Keffer, for years manager of the B. C. Copper Co., is now pretty well taken up with looking after the .varied interests of the company, and the active management of the Mother Lode mine has been taken over by Ji E. McAllistefj the capable smelter superintendent for the company.

COMING AND GOING MlasCreli. : " .If ypu. desire to iparticipate ���in. an evening of rare enjoyment go to the Miners' Union Hall on Wednesday, Oct. 18, and see the high*grade performance of Richards & Pringle's Fam ous Georgia Minstrels. People sometimes say, "All minstrel .'hows are. alike," but this is a superficial blunder. Go and see for yourself.and.you will proclaim that the "Georgias" are in a class distinct and by themselves. This season they oring an entire new show, retaining onlv Clarence Powell from last year. See the big parade at 11.30 a.m. Richard Armstrong, who is largely identified with the high grade mines of the Boundary, left fof-.-Chicago this week, after spending some time in this section looking after his interests. -He was here a couple of weeks ago, and after seeing the Pc rtland fair, stopped off here on the way east. Mr. Armstrong was accompanied by Ferdinand VV. Peck, Jr., son of Ferdinand W. Peck, a Chicago millionaire, who will be remembered as president of the Chicago world's fair, high commissioner from the United States government to the Paris exposition, builder of the Chicago Auditorium and founder of the Chicago Union League Club. Mr. Peck is well satisfied with the manner in which his investments in the Boundary are turning out. The Preston Mining Co., of which he is president, is sinking the shaft on the" property of the same name, and every shot seems to improve its appearance. On the Helen, also, close to Green wood, the shaft is being sunk to the 210 foot level, being now down nearly 150 feet, and this will open up considerable stoping ground. The work is being done by contract by F. L. Hesselwood and partners, who have recently installed an air compressor. Something like a hundred tons of high grade ore have been recently shipped from the Helen. ' ���^ \MrV Armstrong is' working on a plan to erect a concentrator in the Boundary, for the purpose of handling ores from properties nhere the values run from say $8 to $15 per ton���not high enough to stand treatment by the lead smelters and too low for the others. He states that he now has assurances of 200 tons per day from about a dozen or fifteen different properties^ and that he will shortly take-up the matter, and build a concentrator of an initial capacity of 100 tons daily, which, can , readily be enlarged. The erection of such a plant will prove of great benefit to a large number of properties in this section, giving a ready market for ores not now marketable. A much better rate for the concentrates can be obtained from the smelters. They Saw the Spokane Fair. Monday's outgomg train took 40 or 50 persons from Phoenix to see the Spokane Interstate fair, while each day this week a number have done likewise. The railway's patronage has certainly been laige from this district, and reports from the fair, like those from the. Portland, Nelson and Dominion fairs this year, are that it was well worth seeing. Among those noted who went to Spokane this week .were the following: G. W. Rumberger, W. J. Porter and wife, C. D Hunter, J. A. McMaster, Mrs J. H. Hudson and family, Mrs. j.-E.

Williams, of Rossland, representing the Canadian Rand Drill Co., was in camp Tuesday. Frederic Keffer and Capt. Harry Johns, of the B. C. Copper Co., were in the city Wednesday. Miss Williams, sister ot W. R. Williams, and Mrs. Clifford, of Winnipeg, arrived on a visit to the judge this week. Steve Swanson, foreman at the Gran by mines, returned this week from Spokane, his family now being in Spo kane, where they will spend the winter. Dr. J. C. Hcrdman, superintendent of Presbyterian missions, who was in the city Tuesday, stated that Rev. Samuel Lundie,who had been appointed for the Phoenix charge, would be here for services tomorrow.

It was true at that time, and it is just as true today as then, whatever the line of effort may be., Little can be accomplished without unity of purpose] among individuals, every one working to the same general end. And it applies equally to towns, cities and communities generally. What one or two could not possibly accomdlish alone, can often be accomplished by the many. A recent illustration of this is the formation of the Boosters' Club, or 150,000 Club, in Spokane,* which all classes are joining in throngs, > and for no other purpose than making known the advantages of Spokane to the out side world, and thereby increasing the B.

A dividend of two per cent has been .declared by the St. Eugene mine, being the sixth so paid. The LeRoi smelter at Northport may ���be closed down between the 15th and 20th of October, as it will take until that time to clean up the itock on hand. All the ore from-jhe LeRoi will thereafter be treated at Trail, it is said. , Last week Friday morning the shaft house and all machinery at the St. Eugene mine, Moyie, was totally destroyed by fire. The loss is estimated at $25,000, covered by an insurance of $8,000. It will require some months to rebuild and secure and install new' machinery. COLUMBIAN COLLEGE.

Heinze and C. XV'. Barron without gloves in one, of his "Frenzied Finance'' articles in Everybody's Magazine���incidentally paying a few compliments to.P. A. O'Farrell, Mr. Heinze's confidential man. Mr. O'Farrell, while in Spokane last week, gave the following picturesque reply to the Lawton attack, which was .printed in the.Sjiokane Outburst, showing the otjier side of the story/ Mr. O'Farrell is t well kiiown in the Boundary, and was a visitor in Phoenix. I his; week with M.r. Heinze': '"Fakir and. mountebank are the two epithets that best become Thomas \V. Lawson, of Boston. He has been a tin-horn gambler and a,tout for some of the most expert; swindlers of the age, and since La wson began manipulating 'stock rriarkets his! one end' and aim has Deen to. .;fool investors and speculators ".and separate them from their money. The enmity of such a man is something to" be proud of. ��� The .Standard Oil iieppleihired Law-son to slander- aria" abuse and ;S flim-flam Heinze, of Montana, and they led him 10 believe .that millions would be his if he succeeded *n blasting Heinze's name and filching his property. For sevens ytars he stooped to the lowest depth of infamy in his war on Heinze and his associates, and his utter failure has driven him insane. The Standard Oil got disgusted with Lawson for his failure, and the. now,disappointed fakir exhibits his sores and wounds to all the \vorld, and spews' his falsehood nnd Vernon against the very men whose genius has enabled him to inflict terrible defeat on the stock gamblers of ���Wall Street and Boston. ��� "Heinze needs no defense from jLawson's slanders in the great��� Northwest.,. His name is one to conjure with out here. Indeed, I.awson's outpouring of calumny against Heinze rings the death-knell of his faking in the great-mining regions of the VVest. fn Boston and in New York Lawson is lviiown. There are fearless and able journalists in both cities who have torn the. mask of- cant and hypocrisy- off Lawron's brazen brow, and have held him up to, the contempt of honest,men .-'���Foremost among .these great ...journalists; stands C.; W. Barron; of Boston, a man whom all the power and wealth of Standard Oil could not browbeat or wheedle. While many of the great daily newspapers of New York and Boston were silenced by enormous advertising from Lawson, C. W. Barron kept exposing swindle after swindle promoted by lawson, till he has made the name of Lawson stink in tlte nos- t'lU.of honest men. : 'Hence I.awson's fiendish hatred and insane abuse of Q W. Barron. As fjtjr his abuse of myself, personally, I need say little. No journalist who is la'thlul to his trust, and who at all times puts the mirror up to Nature and paints men and things just as they are can hope to escape calumny from such as I-awson.' Still I must admit that he has a picturesque side, mountebank and fakir though he be.; ���' A confessed swindler, fraud and liar, and yet he thinks the great American' public is so thoroughly gullible that it will make a hero of the most monumental financial mountebank the world has ever seen. "The more I analyze Lawson, and the more I' study his record and his records,' the more thoroughly. I, am convinced that his mental balance is" completely overthrown, and that the margin "is extremely slight that separates him from, the jibberings ofthe raving maniac.

'&' THE OBSERVATORY Things Talickd op at homk and klskwiikkk I f I For the information of inqurin,; Phoenicians and. others, it might be well to Mate that Cawthra Mulock, the millionaire son of Sir William Mulock, postmaster-general, when recently making a flying trip through the lioimdary, did not nwke any statement as to when a mail service would be inaugurated over the oteat Northern railway from Grand Forks to Phoenix. It would seem, however, that the authorities do not give a tinker's whoop whether the service is inaugurated on this earth or on the next. If they do care, they have failed to indicate it in any tangible way. But���stick a pin in here���it;will come some sweet day.
